1.19 is what percent of 960 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 960 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 960, so we can write it down as 100%=960.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=960
2) x%=1.19
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=960/1.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.19 is what percent of 960

100%/x%=960/1.19
(100/x)*x=(960/1.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=806.72268907563*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (806.72268907563) to get x
100/806.72268907563=x
0.12395833333333=x
x=0.12395833333333

now we have:
1.19 is 0.12395833333333% of 960
